Processing aids
can be used to achieve an improved surface finish,
expanded heat processing window, elimination of
die drool, and higher line speeds.
It works by migrating to the
surface during molding to facilitate a smooth
demolding experience.
SITECOOL™
SiteCool is an additive solution for fluoropolymer
roofing systems that reduces the transfer of heat into
the interiors of architectural structures by absorbing
infrared energy contained within the solar spectrum.
